UAF researchers are studying massive holes found in the ice and ground of the Siberian arctic.

“The first crater which was observed, happened in 2013,” Romanovsky explained, “and before that there was no mention of anything like this in the scientific literature, and even in non-scientific literature - so it’s really something new which is starting to happen.” But while resulting eruptions have yet to be observed, those living in the area have likened them to the sound of an explosion.
